Jackson Progress-Argus Published Every Friday. J. DOYLE JONES, Editor and Pub. Subscription $1 a Year Entered as second-class matter at the post office at Jackson, Ga. Telephone No. 166. Official Organ Butts County And the City of Jackson. When in doubt don’t give him a necktie. Did you do your Christmas hinting early? Santa Claus and his presents are soon parted. Official bulletin: Turkey in vades Greece tomorrow. Harris and Hardman seem to be the gubernatorial line up. The Augusta Chronicle has come out for national prohibition. Business seems to be picking up in Mexico. No new revolu tion in a week. Christmas will be a season of anxiety for some of the candi dates in the city primary. Well, Governor Harris has cast his hat in the ring again. He ought to win in a walk. Trying to recall the recallers in Atlanta. Ain’t that an awful mess for the capital city to be in?

Some plain, old fashioned hon esty in governmental affairs is what Georgia needs. The idea of the legislature making appropri ations $600,000 in excess of in come! If the substantial business element doesn't take charge of things and send the small-bore self-seeking politician back to private life the public business is likely to become somewhat in volved. What the people want is more constructive, substantial results and fewer promises, in the public business. And this goes for Messrs. Hardman, Harris and the lesser lights. The Christmas edition of the Madisonian, of Madison, Ga , was a gem dandy. It consisted of forty-four pages, with attractive cover, and was liberally patron ized by the business men of Mad ison. The edition was *n effec tive advertisement for Madison, Morgan county and the Madison ian. The Holiday and Industrial edition of the Cochran Journal, containing forty pages, was one of the best we have seen. The reading matter was of an enter taining nature and the advertise ments arranged attractively. The Journal deserves a lot of credit for putting out such a splendid paper. Theprobabilitiesare Henry Ford wants to run for something and needs the publicity.—Jackson Progress. If Ford can afford lo ford the waters he is now sailing over he will be playing lucky, but if he hits land on the other side he’ll very probably feel he’s got some thing to run for, then. —Milledge- ville News.

He was 64 years old. All men have their friends and all men have their special friends and he was one of mine. It grew up with us from our earliest boyhood and it lasted even down to old age. Our friend ship was as close as any tie that binds and as lasting as the eter nal hills. He was a member of Pleasant Grove church instead of Beulah church as was stated in a previous notice of his death. He was a man of deep convictions and had his own ideas about cer tain things and his conception of right was what made him the high toned Christian gentleman he was and those who knew him best were the ones who loved him most. He told me a few days be fore he took his bed that this earthlv tabernacle would soon be dissolved but I know I have an other building made without hands, eternal in the heavens. He has gone* to that city whose builder is God and whose gates are not shut neither by day nor by night. A Friend.
